Free half-term pebble painting at Rye museum
The event is being held to support the RNLI Rye Harbour Pebble Project. The project is to commemorate the ninetieth anniversary of the Mary Stanford lifeboat disaster in 1928 by creating a painted pebble pavement alongside the present-day RNLI station in Rye Harbour.
Heather Stevenson Museum Director said: “This will be a free drop in event, but donations will be gratefully received. Pebbles and paint will be provided and help will be on hand to choose a suitable nautical picture for the pebbles.

The story of the Mary Stanford lifeboat tragedy is on display at Rye Museum; East Street and Ypres Tower.
